v5.229.2

This bugfix release fixes a number of minor issues that have come up
since v5.229.1:

Fixes and performance enhancements:
- allow `plplay` to support hardware decoding with EGL
- fix an issue where custom shaders with `//!SAVE MAIN` did not save
  textures
- fix a number of minor memory leaks
- fix an issue where custom shaders that tried binding conditionally
  excluded textures generated superfluous errors
- fix an issue where the libav helpers ran into undefined behavior when
  operating on the 128-bit image formats in recent versions of ffmpeg
- fix a build issue on BSD platforms without libdl
- fix an issue where freeing `pl_shader_obj` too early could lead to
  use-after-free errors if shaders still referenced these objects
- fix an issue where applying film grain after debanding could trigger
  an assertion due to a change in bit depth
- fix an issue where film grain generation was unnecessarily verbose due
  to LUT updates
- fix an issue where tone mapping desaturation was not working as
  intended, resulting in strongly oversaturated colors
- fix an issue where the red channel sometimes got unintentionally
  deleted from RGB input images
- fix an issue where AV1 film grain synthesis did not work on pictures
  above 12 bit depth, such as could be the output of a previous filter
- remove an unnecessary assertion that caused build issues on some
  versions of clang
- fix an issue where we unintentionally used linear downscaling on HDR
  sources
- fix an issue with false negatives in the PL_GAMUT_WARN algorithm, and
  also change the algorithm to make it more visually obvious
- fix an issue where OpenGL on WSL2 was unintentionally rejected as a
  software rasterizer

v5.229.1

This minor release fixes a crucial bug in v5.229.0, which caused a
regression when using orthogonal scaler kernels on anything but simple
scaling ratios, as well as other minor fixes.

Fixes and performance enhancements:
- fix an issue where the pl_shader_sample_ortho refactor broke
  orthogonal scalers inside pl_renderer, for anything but very simply
  scaling ratios
- fix an issue where pl_shader_sample_ortho2 rejected some scaling
  ratios due to floating point inaccuracy
- fix an issue where some extreme 'test' ICC profiles were unfairly
  rejected by the gamma detection code
- fix an issue where some oddly-crafted ICC profiles could result in
  NaNs propagating into the shader math

v5.229.0

This is a major release, bumping up the major version to v5 and dropping
all APIs deprecated in v3.x. The other major breaking change of this
release is a switch away from the external `libepoxy` and `mako`
dependencies in favor of the (optionally bundled) `glad2` and `jinja2`.
These are now included, along with various other build-time dependencies,
as git submodules. Users are advised to clone with `git clone
--recursive` in order to satisfy these dependencies automatically, while
distros maintainers are nonetheless encouraged to continue packaging
them.

In addition, this release brings with it a number of new features and
changes - including support for fully automatic GPU deinterlacing, error
diffusion dithering, gamma-aware dithering, and a number of improvements
to the handling of HDR sources and output displays, as well as several
notable bug fixes and performance enhancements.

Additions:
- add `pl_gpu_limits.array_size_constants` to indicate whether or not
  push constants can be used to size arrays
- add PL_HANDLE_MTL_TEX, PL_HANDLE_IOSURFACE and `pl_shared_mem.plane`
  to improve interop with MoltenVK
- add the informational fields `pl_opengl.major, `pl_opengl.minor`,
  `pl_opengl_extensions` and the `pl_opengl_has_ext` utility function
- add `pl_opengl_params.get_proc_addr` and `get_proc_addr_ex`
- add `pl_deband_params.grain_neutral`, the effect of which is to scale
  down / disable adding noise near this value
- add <libplacebo/shaders/deinterlacing.h>, containing a basic
  implementation of yadif, bob and weave
- add support for deinterlacing metadata to `pl_render_params`,
  `pl_frame`, and `pl_source_frame`
- add <libplacebo/shaders/dithering.h>, splitting this off from its
  previous location inside <libplacebo/shaders/colorspace.h>
- add `pl_shader_error_diffusion` and related helper functions, as well
  as `pl_render_params.error_diffusion`
- add `pl_dither_params.transfer` to support gamma-aware dithering
- add `pl_icc_params.force_bpc` to help work around black point
  compensation issues on "broken" v4 and v2 profiles

Changes:
- fields and functions deprecated in libplacebo v3 have been removed
- `python3-mako` is now bundled as a submodule to make resolving this
  dependency easier
- drop `libepoxy` as a dependency, and require `glad` v2 instead, the
  latter of which is added as a submodule to make building easier
- drop the `PL_STRUCT` transitional macro, and switch to a consistent
  API where e.g. `pl_tex` is a typedef of `const struct pl_tex_t *`.
- `PL_LUT_CONVERSION` now explicitly overrides ICC profiles as well
- HDR color spaces no longer default to having a black point of 0.005
  nits, instead now defaulting to "true" black (1e-7 nits)
- BT.1886 sources are now automatically tuned to match the swapchain /
  detected target contrast, rather than defaulting to 1000:1
- move `pl_queue_params.frame_duration` to `pl_source_frame.duration`
- the `vulkan-link` and `opengl-loader` boolean meson options have been
  removed in favor of the `vk-proc-addr` and `gl-proc-addr` feature
  flags, defaulting to `auto` instead of `yes`
- a copy of `vulkan.h` and `vk.xml` have been bundled as submodules to
  make satisfying these dependencies easier
- `<libplacebo/opengl.h>`, `<libplacebo/vulkan.h>` and
  `<libplacebo/d3d11.h`> are now installed unconditonally, with stubs
  for `pl_vulkan_create` etc. available even if these features are
  disabled at compile time
- `pl_render_info.index` no longer indicates the number of frames being
  mixed on PL_RENDER_STAGE_BLEND, instead being relegated to the new
  field `pl_render_info.count`
- `pl_shader_sample_ortho` has been reworked in order to fix a design
  flaw in its API, see `pl_shader_sample_ortho2` for its replacement

Fixes and performance enhancements:
- fix a bug where shaders with dynamically sized arrays would fail to
  compile on MoltenVK

  correctly invalidate the ICC 3DLUT and renderer cache
- greatly improve the performance and accuracy of 3DLUTs (ICC, .cube)
- fix compilation on newer glslang and make this code forward-compatible
- fix an issue where `pl_shader_dither` raised the apparent brightness
  of the image when dithering to low bit depths
- fix compilation on vulkan systems with `vulkan.h` available but no
  vulkan loader
- fix an issue where DV metadata requiring an EL was partially applied
- fix an issue where PQ HDR sources were incorrectly assumed to have a

v5.228.0-rc1

This is a major release, bumping up the major version to v5 and dropping
all APIs deprecated in v3.x. The other major breaking change of this
release is a switch away from the external `libepoxy` OpenGL dependency
in favor of the (optionally bundled) `glad` version 2. This is now
included, along with various other build-time dependencies, as git
submodules. Users are advised to clone with `git clone --recursive` in
order to satisfy these dependencies automatically, while distros
maintainers are nonetheless encouraged to continue packaging them.

In addition, this release brings with it a number of new features and
changes - including support for fully automatic GPU deinterlacing, error
diffusion dithering, gamma-aware dithering, and a number of improvements
to the handling of HDR sources and output displays, as well as several
notable bug fixes and performance enhancements.

Additions:
- add `pl_gpu_limits.array_size_constants` to indicate whether or not
  push constants can be used to size arrays
- add PL_HANDLE_MTL_TEX, PL_HANDLE_IOSURFACE and `pl_shared_mem.plane`
  to improve interop with MoltenVK
- add the informational fields `pl_opengl.major, `pl_opengl.minor`,
  `pl_opengl_extensions` and the `pl_opengl_has_ext` utility function
- add `pl_opengl_params.get_proc_addr` and `get_proc_addr_ex`
- add `pl_deband_params.grain_neutral`, the effect of which is to scale
  down / disable adding noise near this value
- add <libplacebo/shaders/deinterlacing.h>, containing a basic
  implementation of yadif, bob and weave
- add support for deinterlacing metadata to `pl_render_params`,
  `pl_frame`, and `pl_source_frame`
- add <libplacebo/shaders/dithering.h>, splitting this off from its
  previous location inside <libplacebo/shaders/colorspace.h>
- add `pl_shader_error_diffusion` and related helper functions, as well
  as `pl_render_params.error_diffusion`
- add `pl_dither_params.transfer` to support gamma-aware dithering
- add `pl_icc_params.force_bpc` to help work around black point
  compensation issues on "broken" v4 and v2 profiles

Changes:
- fields and functions deprecated in libplacebo v3 have been removed
- `python3-mako` is now bundled as a submodule to make resolving this
  dependency easier
- drop `libepoxy` as a dependency, and require `glad` v2 instead, the
  latter of which is added as a submodule to make building easier
- drop the `PL_STRUCT` transitional macro, and switch to a consistent
  API where e.g. `pl_tex` is a typedef of `const struct pl_tex_t *`.
- `PL_LUT_CONVERSION` now explicitly overrides ICC profiles as well
- HDR color spaces no longer default to having a black point of 0.005
  nits, instead now defaulting to "true" black (1e-7 nits)
- BT.1886 sources are now automatically tuned to match the swapchain /
  detected target contrast, rather than defaulting to 1000:1
- move `pl_queue_params.frame_duration` to `pl_source_frame.duration`
- the `vulkan-link` and `opengl-loader` boolean meson options have been
  removed in favor of the `vk-proc-addr` and `gl-proc-addr` feature
  flags, defaulting to `auto` instead of `yes`
- a copy of `vulkan.h` and `vk.xml` have been bundled as submodules to
  make satisfying these dependencies easier
- `<libplacebo/opengl.h>`, `<libplacebo/vulkan.h>` and
  `<libplacebo/d3d11.h`> are now installed unconditonally, with stubs
  for `pl_vulkan_create` etc. available even if these features are
  disabled at compile time
- `pl_render_info.index` no longer indicates the number of frames being
  mixed on PL_RENDER_STAGE_BLEND, instead being relegated to the new
  field `pl_render_info.count`

- add `pl_film_grain_from_av` helper function
- add support for configuring the swapchain color space on D3D11, using
  the existing pl_swapchain_colorspace_hint mechanism

v4.192.1

This is a minor bugfix release, containing some crucial follow-up for
v4.192.0, most notably a fix for a regression in the YCbCr decoding
logic that resulted in slightly green-shifted output on 10/12-bit files.

Fixes and performance enhancements:
- fix a regression causing incorrect YCbCr decoding for 10-bit content
- fix overzealous error detection on OpenGL initialization
- fix build issue caused by the use of 64-bit atomics on some platforms
- fix a regression in renderer functionality caused by an unintended
  restriction of FBO requirements on certain platforms (older d3d11)
- fix an issue where certain d3d11 texture formats were not blittable
- fix debug layer checks on d3d 11.0
- fix context creation on older d3d11 runtimes
- fix an issue where PL_TONE_MAP_HYBRID unintentionally oversaturated
  low brightness scenes
- fix a build issue on certain BSD platforms
- update nuklear to 4.9.5, fixing some build-time warnings
- fix an issue where a change to the d3d11 swapchain code resulted in
  lots of unnecessary log spam
- fix an issue where some d3d11 formats were detected as gatherable, but
  not sampleable

v4.192.0

This is a minor release, designed to synchronize with the release of
FFmpeg 5.0. It focuses mainly on improvements to color space handling -
including support for Dolby Vision Profile 5/8 content, completely
rewritten HDR tone/gamut mapping, and bringing `pl_color_space` more in
line with HDR10 metadata. Libplacebo now generally respects things like
mastering color space metadata, especially for PL_INTENT_SATURATION.
This technology is not yet perfect, and will be iterated upon in future
versions of libplacebo. This release serves mainly to lay the API
groundwork.

Other notable changes include support for H.274 film grain synthesis, as well
as improvements to the AVFrame<->libplacebo interop (in particular, support for
hardware accelerated frames), and various fixes related to alpha transparency.

As usual, also includes a number of bug fixes, performance improvements, and
miscellaneous improvements to the API and debug messages - such as the
inclusion of a brand-new Vulkan memory allocator, and a complete overhaul of
the Vulkan synchronization infrastructure to use timeline semaphores,
again for compatibility with FFmpeg Vulkan contexts.

Additions:
- add support for H.274 film grain synthesis
- add preprocessor macros for all params structs, allowing users to write e.g.
  `pl_render_params(.foo = bar)` to construct a `pl_render_params` pointer
  which implicitly includes any default fields, without the need for explicitly
  reading from pl_render_default_params
- add support for video/display rotation in the renderer
- add `pl_frame_copy_stream_props`
- add support for blending transparency against a checkerboard pattern
- add `pl_fmt.signature`, for render pass compatibility
- add `pl_pass_params.index_fmt` to allow 32-bit index buffers
- add `pl_dispatch_reset_frame`, to allow explicitly advancing the state
  of the PRNG and/or triggering garbage collection
- add the possibility of adding extra debug tags to GPU resources, which
  the default params helper macros set to the current source location

  `tone_mapping_mode` and `tone_mapping_function`, and the old `gamut_warning`
  and `gamut_clipping` by the new `gamut_mode`
- completely refactor `pl_color_space`: deprecate the old `sig_peak`,
  `sig_scale` etc. fields in favor of merging `pl_hdr_metadata` into this
  struct, and update the API of several functions that previusly took
  `pl_color_space` struct values, to instead take pointers
- remove `pl_color_light` entirely, instead treating the OOTF as an inseparable
  part of the color transfer function (e.g. HLG)

v4.192.0-rc1

This is a minor release that focuses mainly on improvements to color space
handling - including support for Dolby Vision Profile 5/8 content, completely
rewritten HDR tone/gamut mapping, and bringing `pl_color_space` more in line
with HDR10 metadata. Libplaceb now generally respects things like mastering
color space metadata, especially for PL_INTENT_SATURATION. This technology is
not yet perfect, and will be iterated upon in future versions of libplacebo.
This release serves mainly to lay the API groundwork.

Other notable changes include support for H.274 film grain synthesis, as well
as improvements to the AVFrame<->libplacebo interop (in particular, support for
hardware accelerated frames), and various fixes related to alpha transparency.

As usual, also includes a number of bug fixes, performance improvements, and
miscellaneous improvements to the API and debug messages - such as the
inclusion of a brand-new Vulkan memory allocator, and a complete overhaul of
the Vulkan synchronization infrastructure to use timeline semaphores.

Additions:
- add support for H.274 film grain synthesis
- add preprocessor macros for all params structs, allowing users to write e.g.
  `pl_render_params(.foo = bar)` to construct a `pl_render_params` pointer
  which implicitly includes any default fields, without the need for explicitly
  reading from pl_render_default_params
- add support for video/display rotation in the renderer
- add `pl_frame_copy_stream_props`
- add support for blending transparency against a checkerboard pattern
- add `pl_fmt.signature`, for render pass compatibility
- add `pl_pass_params.index_fmt` to allow 32-bit index buffers
- add `pl_dispatch_reset_frame`, to allow explicitly advancing the state
  of the PRNG and/or triggering garbage collection
- add the possibility of adding extra debug tags to GPU resources, which
  the default params helper macros set to the current source location
- add `pl_gpu_limits.max_variable_comps`, correctly specifying the upper
  bound on the number of uniform variable floats
- add `pl_vulkan_get`, `pl_opengl_get` and `pl_d3d11_get`
- add `pl_shader_set_alpha`
- add `pl_map_avframe_ex` and `pl_unmap_avframe`, which allow mapping extra
  AVFrame resources, and also support the use of hardware frames such as vaapi,

v4.157.0

This is a major new release involving a significant overhaul of the
public API, full thread safety, support for Direct3D 11 / Win32 /
MSVC, native HDR output, and more.

The primary way of accessing most libplacebo objects has been revamped.
Rather than writing e.g. `const struct pl_tex *image`, users now simply
write `pl_tex image`. In addition, the `struct pl_context *ctx` was
universally refactored and replaced by `pl_log log`, with no concern
besides logging.

Direct3D 11 is now natively supported by libplacebo, and compiling on
Windows in general has been made more straightforward.

The entire API was revamped to be thread safe by default, even when
using OpenGL (assuming the user provides the appropriate context binding
callbacks). Accompanying this change, the `pl_queue` has been rewritten
with multi-threaded decoding loops in mind. See the accompanying
`plplay` demo for an illustration.

Finally, this release brings with it a lot of features for feature
parity with mpv, such as the ability to get pass stats / timings,
oversample scaling, and more.

Additions:
- add a `void *user_data` field to `pl_frame`, with no further
  interpretation by libplacebo
- add `pl_queue_push_block`, useful for multi-threaded decoding loops
- add a `uint64_t timeout` to `pl_queue_update`, allowing it to
  block until frames are available even when not using a `get_frame`
  callback
- make `pl_queue_update` also return valid data when failing with
  PL_QUEUE_MORE, allowing access to partial/incomplete mix outputs
- allow calling `pl_render_image` on `image == NULL`, to render overlays
  only
- add `pl_get_buffer2`, API-compatible with AVCodecContext.get_buffer2
- add support for blitting from/to several obscure formats such as
  a1rgb5 or 64-bit integer formats
- add `pl_tex_clear_ex` to support clearing integer textures
- add `pl_render_params.ignore_icc_profiles`, for debugging
- add `pl_queue_params.interpolation_threshold`, to allow disabling
  frame mixing when the source FPS approximately matches the display FPS
- always accept DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID for texture imports
- add extra windowing functions to <libplacebo/filters.h>
- add the `pl_fmt.gatherable` capability
- add `pl_shader_sample_oversample`, a variant of nearest-neighbour
  that preserves pixel aspect ratios - good for pixel art
- add `pl_scale_filters` alongside `pl_frame_mixers`
- add support for compile-time specialization constants (`pl_constant`),
  and use them to speed up recompilation of shaders with hard-coded
  constants
- add `pl_render_params.dynamic_constants`, which lifts hard-coded
  constants to dynamic variables - useful for scenarios in which render
  parameters are expected to change very frequently
- add more PL_COLOR_TRC_GAMMAxx definitions
- implement full black point adaptation, even when not using ICC
  profiles, and infer this black-point-adapted BT.1886 instead of gamma
  2.2 as the default gamma curve for SDR files.
- add `pl_shader_res.description` and `pl_shader_res.steps`, containing
  more friendly names for shaders plus a detailed list of operations
  that shader is performing
- add callbacks to `pl_dispatch` and `pl_renderer` for informing users
  of executed passes and their execution times
- add support for the Direct3D 11 graphics API
- add `pl_swapchain_colorspace_hint`, replacing
  `pl_swapchain_hdr_metadata` as the new way to update swapchain
  colorspace metadata at runtime. This can be used to e.g. switch
  between HDR and SDR mode, for supported swapchains
- add `pl_peak_detect_params.minimum_peak`, allowing users to constrain
  the detected peak values to only be sensible (e.g. above 1.0)

Changes:
- simplify the `shaderc` pkg-config check - rather than querying for
  `shaderc_shared.pc`, `shaderc_combined.pc` etc, simply check for
  `shaderc.pc`, matching upstream
- make almost everything thread-safe, and document the parts that
  aren't. In particular, almost all GPU state access is now thread safe,
  freeing up users to access `pl_gpu` instances from multiple threads,
  even when the underlying API is OpenGL
- deprecate `disable_overlay_sampling`, now effectively always true
- `struct pl_overlay` has been refactored completely to allow for
  overlays with more than one part per texture. The only way of using
  this struct is deprecated
- prefix `enum pl_queue_status` members by `PL_`, fixing an oversight in
  the previous version of this API
- make `pl_renderer` automatically clear the target image, freeing users
  from the responsibility of calling `pl_frame_clear` themselves. This
  can be controlled via three new fields in `pl_render_params`:
  `background_color`, `background_transparency` and `skip_target_clearing`
- rename `pl_context` to `pl_log`, and make its use optional. The old
  names have been deprecated. It now lives inside <libplacebo/log.h>
- add `typedefs` to all public-facing object types, o make them shorter
  to reference. For example, `const struct pl_tex *tex` is now simply
  `pl_tex tex`. This change affects almost every type of object in
  libplacebo. The old way of referencing these objects is still
  possible, but considered deprecated. Note that due to C++-specific
  reasons, C++ users *must* upgrade their codeto the new API style
- remove PL_PRIM_TRIANGLE_FAN
- remove support for 64-bit float formats, which probably don't work on
  any Vulkan implementation
- stop contrast-limiting ICC profiles, instead assuming perceptual
  profiles have infinite contrast
- remove `pl_shader_signature` for being necessarily unsafe
- require Vulkan 1.1 as the minimum vulkan version
- rename `pl_oversample_frame_mixer` to `pl_filter_oversample`, and
  allow using it for image scaling as well
- change `pl_color_space_monitor` from PL_COLOR_TRC_GAMMA22 to UNKNOWN
- change the signature of `pl_shader_(de)linearize` slightly
- significantly increase the default strengths of the desaturation
  settings in`pl_color_map_params`, to mimic the hollywood feel
- refactor `pl_glsl_desc` and `pl_gpu_caps` completely, in favor of the
  new structs `pl_glsl_version` and `pl_gpu_limits`, with new members.
  The old API is still available for the time being, but deprecated

Fixes and performance improvements:
- fix possible use-after-free in `plplay`
- don't explode `pl_queue` on NaN/Infinity/weird PTS values
- fix edge case involving plane merging for cropped images
- improve `plplay` by using threaded libplacebo APIs
- several fixes for edge cases in <libplacebo/utils/libav.h> helpers
- several fixes for 32-bit platforms (e.g. integer overflows)
- fix blending edge cases involving overlays and alpha channels
- skip some unnecessary matrix multiplications for RGB content
- allow for some small backwards PTS jumps in `pl_queue_update`
- fix drawing overlays to subsampled targets
- `pl_dispatch` now garbage collects old, unused passes to free up RAM
- various improvements to debug/diagnonstic printouts
- allow blitting from e.g. 2D to 3D textures
- slightly improve small texture transfers in some emulated edge cases
- fix several possible hash collisions for generated shaders, making the
  shader dispatch mechanism significantly more robust
- properly allow building against vulkan headers without linking to the
  vulkan loader
- C++ compatibility for public headers
- improve performance of textureGather-based polar sampling, especially
  for radius 2 and 4
- fix vulkan texture handle capabilities check, again
- don't include superfluous pNext chains, fixes undefined behavior
- fix crash on edge case when shader compilation fails
- infer unsampled alpha channels as 1.0, rather than 0.0
- properly infer `target->color` in `pl_render_image`
- properly tag the OpenGL swapchain as pl_color_space_monitor
- fix possible crash in pl_get_detected_peak
- fix several edge cases in pl_render_image_mix relating to LUTs,
  3DLUTs, HDR peak detection and so on
- fix sig_peak inferral for HLG content
- several compatibility fixes for older GLSL, and GLES 2.0
- fix possible use-after-free in pl_shader_custom
- fix `pl_color_map_params.gamut_clipping` for HDR targets
- reduce the number of redundant color space transformations required
  for frame mixing
- fix edge case in pl_dispatch_save for some ancient GL drivers
- several fixes for LLVM/MinGW/MSVC
- fix bug where pl_pass_run incorrectly invalidated/accessed
  `params->target` even for compute shaders
- add windows compatibility to several demo programs
- fix the pl_fmt <-> DRM fourcc format mapping table
- fix inappropriate texture access function for generated samplers with
  the sampler2D API

- add `pl_queue_params.interpolation_threshold`, to allow disabling
  frame mixing when the source FPS approximately matches the display FPS
- always accept DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID for texture imports
- add extra windowing functions to <libplacebo/filters.h>
- add the `pl_fmt.gatherable` capability
- add `pl_shader_sample_oversample`, a variant of nearest-neighbour
  that preserves pixel aspect ratios - good for pixel art
- add `pl_scale_filters` alongside `pl_frame_mixers`
- add support for compile-time specialization constants (`pl_constant`),
  and use them to speed up recompilation of shaders with hard-coded
  constants
- add `pl_render_params.dynamic_constants`, which lifts hard-coded
  constants to dynamic variables - useful for scenarios in which render
  parameters are expected to change very frequently
- add more PL_COLOR_TRC_GAMMAxx definitions
- implement full black point adaptation, even when not using ICC
  profiles, and infer this black-point-adapted BT.1886 instead of gamma
  2.2 as the default gamma curve for SDR files.
- add `pl_shader_res.description` and `pl_shader_res.steps`, containing
  more friendly names for shaders plus a detailed list of operations
  that shader is performing
- add callbacks to `pl_dispatch` and `pl_renderer` for informing users
  of executed passes and their execution times
- add support for the Direct3D 11 graphics API
- add `pl_swapchain_colorspace_hint`, replacing
  `pl_swapchain_hdr_metadata` as the new way to update swapchain
  colorspace metadata at runtime. This can be used to e.g. switch
  between HDR and SDR mode, for supported swapchains
- add `pl_peak_detect_params.minimum_peak`, allowing users to constrain
  the detected peak values to only be sensible (e.g. above 1.0)

Changes:
- simplify the `shaderc` pkg-config check - rather than querying for
  `shaderc_shared.pc`, `shaderc_combined.pc` etc, simply check for
  `shaderc.pc`, matching upstream
- make almost everything thread-safe, and document the parts that
  aren't. In particular, almost all GPU state access is now thread safe,
  freeing up users to access `pl_gpu` instances from multiple threads,
  even when the underlying API is OpenGL
- deprecate `disable_overlay_sampling`, now effectively always true
- `struct pl_overlay` has been refactored completely to allow for
  overlays with more than one part per texture. The only way of using
  this struct is deprecated
- prefix `enum pl_queue_status` members by `PL_`, fixing an oversight in
  the previous version of this API
- make `pl_renderer` automatically clear the target image, freeing users
  from the responsibility of calling `pl_frame_clear` themselves. This
  can be controlled via three new fields in `pl_render_params`:
  `background_color`, `background_transparency` and `skip_target_clearing`
- rename `pl_context` to `pl_log`, and make its use optional. The old
  names have been deprecated. It now lives inside <libplacebo/log.h>
- add `typedefs` to all public-facing object types, o make them shorter
  to reference. For example, `const struct pl_tex *tex` is now simply
  `pl_tex tex`. This change affects almost every type of object in
  libplacebo. The old way of referencing these objects is still
  possible, but considered deprecated. Note that due to C++-specific
  reasons, C++ users *must* upgrade their codeto the new API style
- remove PL_PRIM_TRIANGLE_FAN
- remove support for 64-bit float formats, which probably don't work on
  any Vulkan implementation
- stop contrast-limiting ICC profiles, instead assuming perceptual
  profiles have infinite contrast
- remove `pl_shader_signature` for being necessarily unsafe
- require Vulkan 1.1 as the minimum vulkan version
- rename `pl_oversample_frame_mixer` to `pl_filter_oversample`, and
  allow using it for image scaling as well
- change `pl_color_space_monitor` from PL_COLOR_TRC_GAMMA22 to UNKNOWN
- change the signature of `pl_shader_(de)linearize` slightly
- significantly increase the default strengths of the desaturation
  settings in`pl_color_map_params`, to mimic the hollywood feel
- refactor `pl_glsl_desc` and `pl_gpu_caps` completely, in favor of the
  new structs `pl_glsl_version` and `pl_gpu_limits`, with new members.
  The old API is still available for the time being, but deprecated

imports and DRM modifiers, specifically aimed at issues that arose with
mpv's --hwdec=vaapi.

Changes:
- `pl_fmt.modifiers` now always includes DRM_FORMAT_MOD_INVALID on
   OpenGL, which instructs the implementation to not specify modifiers

  considered a hard error, to rule out non-working hwaccel formats

Fixes:
- fix a crash when using sampling shaders on textures with unknown formats
- fix improperly specified SDL header imports in the demos
- fix an issue where the vulkan texture handle capabilities were testing
  for presence of the wrong extension
- fix an issue where non-enabled DRM modifier structs were accidentally
  linked into the pNext chain, causing issues with some drivers

v3.120.1

This hotfix release fixes a number of minor issues with the v3.120.0
release, and also modularizes the included demo programs to cut down on
the number of compiled binaries.

Changes:
- hexadecimal strings in custom shaders may now include whitespace
- added 16-bit half float formats to the dummy pl_gpu
- significantly reduced verbosity of the included demo programs
- merged all of the demo program variants into a single binary that
  picks the best windowing system / graphical API at runtime
- install `plplay` when demos are enabled

Fixes and performance improvements:

- fixed a false positive error in the test framework on 32-bit platforms
- fixed some minor issues with various outdated comments
- fixed a potential use-after-free in the `plplay` demo program when
  playing files containing embedded ICC profiles

v3.120.0

This is a feature release, introducing frame mixing, DRM format
modifiers, and support for custom LUTs -, while also greatly expanding
the available demo programs, in particular the `plplay` video player.

The main highlight is the new `pl_queue` abstraction living in
<libplacebo/utils/frame_queue.h>. This greatly simplifies the core of a
libplacebo-based video renderer by translating a stream of input frames
into an array of GPU-mapped textures suitable for frame mixing, given a
corresponding vsync timestamp. New frames can be delivered to this API
using a push or pull model, and they are lazily uploaded on an as-needed
basis as well as internally garbage collected when no longer needed.
This abstraction also contains all needed machinery for estimating
source/display framerates by comparing and averaging timestamps, freeing
users from the burden of having to accurately determine this information
a priori.

Also worth mentioning is the addition of support for custom LUTs,
currently only in Adobe's .cube format. They can be applied flexibly at
a number of locations in the video processing pipeline, including as a
replacement for YUV<->RGB conversion or tone/gamut mapping, and fed with
either normalized linear light or native-gamma values.

Among the included demo programs, the `plplay` example video player has
been greatly expanded - adding support for a settings GUI (based on
nuklear), frame timing and mixing, custom shaders, and more. This
example video player now serves as a convenient platform to demonstrate
all of libplacebo's advanced rendering features.

Finally, all of libplacebo now contains only code written entirely from
scratch (rather than deriving from mpv), opening up the possibility to
explore different licenses besides the current LGPLv2.1+. In particular,
permissive (MIT/BSD-style) licenses are being considered.

Additions:
- add asynchronous GPU callbacks, specifically to `pl_tex_transfer`,
  allowing for non-blocking host memory transfer operations
- add `pl_shared_mem.stride_w/h` to control dmabuf pitch
- add `pl_render_image_mix` to blend multiple frames into a single
  output image, given relative timestamp information

- add new header <libplacebo/shaders/lut.h> to load custom LUTs
  (currently only supporting the .cube format)

  indexed vertex data when dispatching shader passes
- add `pl_dispatch_vertex` to allow dispatching fragment shaders using
  a list of custom vertices with custom vertex attributes
- add `pl_frame_recreate_from_avframe` and `pl_download_avframe` to help
  downloading GPU textures back into AVFrame form
- add a new header <libplacebo/utils/frame_queue.h> to assist in taking
  a stream of (Frame, PTS) pairs as well as a list of VSync times and
  turning them into a stream of `pl_frame_mix` structs
- add `pl_white_from_temp` and `pl_color_adjustment.temperature` to
  apply white point adjustments between correlated color temperatures (K)
- add `pl_filter_preset.description` containing a longer, human-readable
  name for a given filter preset

Changes:
- `pl_3dlut_params` has been renamed `pl_icc_params`
- `pl_render_params.force_3dlut` has been renamed `force_icc_lut`
- `pl_3dlut_update/apply` have been renamed to `pl_icc_update/apply` and
  moved to a (conditionally installed) new header <libplacebo/shaders/icc.h>
- `pl_upload_plane` no longer initializes `out_plane->shift_x/y` to 0,
  instead leaving them unmodified (to avoid clobbering existing shift data)
- `pl_filter_box` has been renamed to `pl_filter_nearest`
- `pl_filter_triangle` has been renamed to `pl_filter_bilinear`
- `pl_render_params.frame_mixer = NULL` now disables frame mixing - to
  get back the old behaviour, set this to `&pl_oversample_frame_mixer`.
- `pl_color_map_params.gamut_warning` now highlights out-of-gamut colors
  in bright pink, rather than the old (ill-defined) inversion behaviour
- `pl_named_filter_config` has been renamed to `pl_filter_preset`
- `pl_find_named_filter` has been renamed to `pl_find_filter_preset`
- ditto for `pl_named_filter_function` and `pl_filter_function_preset`

v3.104.0

This is a major release, introducing many new features and
modifications. Most importantly, libplacebo now interoperates well with
FFmpeg's libav* abstractions. This is primarily exposed via a new set of
helpers, <libplacebo/utils/libav.h>, implemented as a single header
library. In addition to this, a number of other supporting changes have
been made to the API, most notably the unification of `pl_image` and
`pl_render_target` into a single `pl_frame` concept, similar in spirit
to AVFrame. As such, libplacebo now supports **rendering to planar
targets**, including subsampled YCbCr.

Besides the libav* compatibility changes, this release also brings with
it a new feature for custom shaders: buffer blocks, and persistent
storage. This can be used by third parties to implement stateful shaders
(e.g. motion interpolation or temporal deinterlacing), or be leveraged
to speed up some shaders by combining multiple passes into one.

Finally, various import/export procedures have been expanded, including
the ability to import host pointers and real-world DMABUFs.

Additions:
- add `pl_memory_qualifiers`, plus a corresponding `pl_shader_desc.memory`,
  to allow attaching GLSL memory qualifiers (coherent, volatile etc.) to
  shader descriptors
- add functions `pl_dispatch_save` and `pl_dispatch_load` to allow
  saving/restoring the contents of an entire `pl_dispatch`'s cache
- add functions `pl_renderer_save` and `pl_renderer_load` to allow
  saving/restoring the contents of an entire `pl_renderer`'s cache
- add `pl_vulkan_swapchain_params.prefer_hdr`, which will cause the
  surface format selection logic to try HDR output formats first
- add `pl_buf_copy` to copy from one buffer to another
- add `pl_get_detected_peak`, to read back the result of peak detection
- add `pl_primaries_superset` to test if one set of primaries is fully
  enclosed by another
- add `pl_color_map_params.gamut_clipping`, which will colorimetrically
  clip any out-of-gamut colors by desaturating them towards neutral gray
  until they're in-gamut, rather than clipping per channel as before
- add `PL_GPU_CAP_SUBGROUPS` and `pl_gpu_limits.subgroup_size`, to
  expose GLSL subgroup functionality via the `pl_gpu` interface
- add `pl_gpu_is_failed`, to query at a high level whether the `pl_gpu`
  is in some internal failure state. GPUs in this state should be
  recreated, using the appropriate mechanism
- add `pl_shader_custom`, to allow injecting arbitrary custom GLSL code
  into a `pl_shader`.
- add `pl_buf_params.import_handle` to allow importing buffers
- add `PL_HANDLE_HOST_POTR`, to allow importing arbitrary host pointers
- add `pl_pass_run_params.vertex_buf`, to allow drawing vertex data
  directly from a `pl_buf`, guarded by `pl_gpu_limits.max_vbo_size`
- add `_COUNT` members to all public enums, for consistency
- add `pl_shared_mem.drm_format_mod`, to allow communicating DRM format
  modifiers when importing/exporting textures

  structs to byte boundaries
- add support for STORAGE textures in user shaders, which can be used to
  persist data across separate invocations of the shader
- add support for BUFFER blocks in user shaders, which can be used to
  create UBOs or SSBOs for use inside shaders, the latter of which can
  also persist across frames and be used to store persistent state
- add PL_COLOR_PRIM_EBU_3213 and PL_COLOR_PRIM_FILM_C
- add a new header <libplacebo/utils/libav.h>, containing a variety of
  helper functions for interoperating between libav* and libplacebo
- add `demos/plplay.c` to serve as a demonstration of how to make a
  trivial playback loop with libavcodec and libplacebo
- add `pl_sample_src.component_mask` to allow sampling an arbitrary
  subset of the available components from a plane

- allow `pl_dispatch_compute` on shaders with outputs, including the
  ability to automatically determine the number of work groups based on
  the shader output resolution

  general. `pl_buf` is now a generic catch-all for any type of buffer,
  with individual capabilities in `pl_buf_params` determinig what type
  of shader operations it can be used for
